[QUOTE="AKGuide, post: 996412, member: 64701"] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Thought I would bring this old thread back as I have just finished my 416-375 RUM. I built the rifle as a guide gun here in Alaska for stopping bears in case of a charge. The bullet I have chosen is a 400 grain A-Frame it is pushed at 2600 fps and the cases fall out of the gun. I believe that I can match weatherby speeds if I push it harder, but don't see a point at the moment. With R17 I may try to get to 2700, but the H414 load at 94 grains is mild and effective. I am now in the process of loading some long range stuff using cutting edge bullets in the 340 grain V15 variety.
